Mission 1: Calm Before The Storm

LOCATE THE ADMIRAL'S SHIP WITH THE SPYGLASS: When the mission begins, take out the Spyglass (press the R2/RT button) and look out on the horizon for a fleet of ships. Zoom in on the Man O' War to complete the first objective.

USE THE MORTAR TO SURPRISE THE FLEET: As soon as you ID the Man O' War, press the L2/LT button to bring up the Mortar cannon view. Target the water near the ships (do NOT target the ships) and fire a Mortar shot to get their attention.

Now that you have the fleet's attention, go to full sail and defend yourself! Fire more Mortars at the Man O' War and fire the heavy shots at the brig and schooners. Focus on sinking the smaller ships and then destroy the Man O' War last.

Once you've incapacitated the Man O' War, get in close and board it and be ready to fight! Adewale only has Hidden Blades and the Rope Dart but combat shouldn't be too difficult. After you've eliminated the ship's captain and most of the crew, enter the hatch to the ship's quarters.

Approach the back of the room and eliminate the guards and the Templar admiral. When the room is cleared, retrieve the captain's delivery package and exit topside to trigger a cutscene.

If you decided to sink the Man O' War instead of boarding it, the only way to retrieve the Templar package is to dive underwater to get it.

Simply swim upwards towards the back of the sunken ship to find the treasure chest next to the dead Admiral. From there, quickly swim back to the diving bell to trigger the next cutscene.

After the cutscene, go into full sail and brace whenever possible. Avoid fighting off the Templar ships and sail towards the storm. Water spouts will block the way and avoiding the first one will be difficult, so sail straight into it and brace. After the first water spout, turn left to the next waypoint and brace the rogue waves. Make it to the waypoint to complete the mission.
